'Wip' they called herâlike the word 'whip,' but maybe short for whippet because of her speedâor like the crack of a whip and it's lash, for her intellect and witâprobably all of the above. She sat in her pew and surveyed as she did each Sunday. She took in the sermon and surveyed; and was surveyed. There were many eyes on herâall cloistered; hiddenâwanting her businessâto be in it....Then there were some whose business she wouldn't mind being in either....but that was her private self, and very few in these pewsâvery fewâwould know that self. Very few were qualified. The qualified made themselves known....
She was on the other side of the sanctuary from Wip. My, she was interesting. Seated there she was all elegance. Not as dark as Wipâcoppery, bronzish....a beautiful metallic sheen offset perfectly by make-up and hair color. The hair, the auburn of autumn leaves...swept to one side....then the face masked by a simple veilâ'hmmmm, haven't seen one of those in a long while,' Wip thought to herself. Not enough of a veil to mask that warm, generous, mouthâthe full lips that glistened with a paint that complemented everything else about the stranger. Wip fought herself for control until the benediction. She would need it....
The stranger stood to make her way out....mmmmmm, the body was delicious and stylishly disguised...hinting at whatever a mind might imagineâand then, so enticingly, at nothing at all. Wip could tell that the woman was about her height; even beneath the veil, she was beautiful. Her breastsâobviously, a preoccupation of Wip'sâwere full, though her church attire revealed little, other than a nipple scraped hard against the coarseness of the raw silk blouse. The hips, and ass; the legs were wonderful....panties?('you need to stop, girl!' Wip told herself). The heelsâwere killersâWip knew she had to know....
'Hello, you're new here....'
'Hello,' the stranger replied, 'just visiting....'
'Well, welcome. I'm Wipâjust Wip....'
'I'm Aubrye....'
'Can I take you up to the main gallery for a cup of tea or coffee?'
'Umm, I'd like that....'
The two of them climbed the steps like old friends. The conversation was fairly innocuous....
For some reason it seemsâwho knowsâthe two of them found themselves in an empty parlor. They chatted until the conversation fell to Aubrye's shoes. The two were standing close enough to whisper to...to catch each other's breath and scent...to measure the heaving of each other's bosom....The shoes almostâalmostâcreated some measured response, but as it was only between the two of them.... Then, with that exchange, within in the essence of that conversation between two womenâ"girl friends"âWip did what close girl friends often do in close conversation. She touched Aubrye. She touched Aubrye in this manner...
Her hand glided innocently to Aubrye's hip....so innocently that neither hardly noticed....then it slipped.... It slipped to Aubrye's ass, and then to the crease between her cheeksâin a space that only separated her bare ass hole from Wip's hot hand by the thin tissue of her dress....
It may have been innocentâinadvertent, in the talk of heels. Aubrye's eyes flared. Her lips bared her beautiful teeth in a soft snarl that someone at a distance might have taken for a smile.... But there was no one elseânot even at a distance.
In a subtle, deft moveâan almost imperceptible moveâAubrye faced Wip, backing her into a corner. She glared, her mouth almost on top of Wip's.... And she said softly, hotly, 'Do you know what you're doing, Bitch? Do you know?... I've got a man with a big, sweet black cockâa heavy hung, black man....Do you know what you're doin?'... Then she pushed up against Wip...her tongue deep in Wip's mouth; her thighs insinuating themselves between Wip's... her full breasts stung by Wip's silicone nipples. Then, she spun on her heel, and strutted toward the door. Half way there, just within whisper, she turned, said again: 'You know what you doin, Bitch? I got a big cocked man.....'
The card fluttered to the table by the door....
***
Wip glanced at the card daily for a week....sniffed its fragrance, traced its embossed letters and numbers...giggled and sometimes laughed at the nameâ'Aubrye Cox'...of 'I got a big cocked man'â'Indeed...' Wip giggled... 'Indeed.... May come the time when even he might need some help....'
She glanced...enhaled...touched....but never dialed....
Late Saturday afternoon...she caught the phone on the third ring.... The voice was deep...huskyânot unlike her own.... It began: 'So, you don't like me?....'
Wip listened....
'We have so much in common...and you so much know what I mean....'
Wip felt the dew gather at her crotch....
'I'll be in church tomorrow.... Will you?....'
Long pause....quick, shallow breaths....a sound suppressed in the back of the throat....Not Wip's....click....
***
There she was.... In church... a few pews away from Wip....calculatingly perched.... 'Amazing...' Wip thought... 'what a little planning could do....' And if Aubrye Cox was anything she was a planner....
The benediction couldn't come soon enough.... Wip couldn't get out of her pew before Aubrye was at her side.... 'Hi....' It was kind of breathless and girlish....but Wip wasn't about to be mislead....
'Hi...' Wip replied as Aubrye leaned in to peck her cheek....the perfume was heavy and muskyânot too overdoneâblending with all the other delicious scents that accompany a woman's preparationâher cosmetic baseâbeneath it all, Wip thoughtâshe couldn't be sureâit could have just been her imagination playing with herâwas the faint fragrance of pussy....
'How about we grab a bite? .... Brunch?'....Aubrye said....
'That sounds good.... Where?'...
